Space exploration used to be a great unifier, and should still be. But nowadays we seem perfectly happy to burn up with our rock.

The excessively faith-demonstrating christians might be obnoxious, but at least they conform to a moral foundation that you share with them in no small part.

@ETBrooD How do you defend yourself against Islam in USA with it's 1st Amendment?

As opposed to communists and moslems.

The information war

Information war is OK to me.

Just spread the truth about Islam is good.

But that is anti-theistic.

No it's anti-Islam

I'm not spreading anything against Christianity

It is anti-theistic in a sense, but specifically only against Islam.

I would, they don't seem to give a fuck about Jesus that much nowadays

Christianity is a smaller evil, but it does no more harm than good.

I agree somewhat yeah

Well they aren't as much of a military influence anymore

While general anti-theism is just a bunch of passive-aggressive fedora-tippers being assmad about people having something bigger that gives them meaning.

Stem cell research, civil liberties, and them being around you cannot mock Islam either without being hypocritical.

Agreed @Zakhan

This is more relevant to Europe with hatespeech laws and even blasphemy laws (protected by conservatives as well, despite anti-Islamic speech being primary target).

Conservatives are shielding anti-Islamic information war.

My anti-theistic stance is simply: Hey you dumb fucks. There will be hundreds of more lifetimes past yours, and at some point, the planet upon which we stand is gonna be fucked, so stop bitching about your hopeful afterlife, and get to work on fixing the issue of the fact that we're all gonna die.

Because they want to keep the blasphemy laws in the law book to protect Christian sensibilities.

This actually concerned me personally, because I realized I had little meaning in life besides friends and close family (although that is pretty decent). So I decided to find my own meaning in life where I don't see objective meaning, hence I'm an absurdist

I do think Christianity is shielding Islam from critique.

In a sort of existentialist sense?

Yeah

Depends on where you are, whiic.

Laws written to protect Christinity are used to protect Islam from being exposed.

Even writing about what's written in Qu'ran and Hadith's to expose it, is a crime in Finland.

Some countries have shit like that and some countries don't.

Also, the state church has toyed with the idea of functioning as sanctuary for deportees. Imagine why I'm fucking anti-theist, incl. anti-Christian.

These are institutions doing bad shit and inspiring bad shit.

Imagine having a state religion for starters.

Well, Britons have that too.

I've seen footage of police raides on churches that hide illegal immigrants, which of course right now mostly includes Muslim immigrants.

Even in modern day, religious institutions like churches still hold too much sway out of favor of older laws.

They get to ignore new laws in some circumstances

@ETBrooD Did they raid actual churches or mosques?

And still "deus vult" is solution, when Christians **are the problem to begin with**?

Churches

They are not the source problem. Humanity is always going to be the source problem.
